Northants all-rounder Rob Keogh to retire after 16 years

Rob Keogh is calling time on his Northamptonshire career at the end of this season. The 34-year-old all-rounder has spent his entire 16 years at the County Ground, making his first-class debut in 2010, and informed the club of his decision this week on medical advice.

Over that span, Keogh's compiled more than 7,000 first-class runs and taken over 200 wickets—a steady presence across all formats. He's been part of multiple promotion pushes and carried senior responsibilities throughout his tenure. The club consulted with medical staff before finalizing the decision.

Northants loses a player who's been synonymous with the club for nearly two decades. He'll remain involved in some capacity after retirement, though the specifics haven't been detailed.
